This is the 3rd pkg of the Newseum series. The Berlin wall was strong enough to hold a tank but it could not stop news from getting into East Germany by word of mouth, smuggled messages or by radio or television.The gallery tells the story of how news and information helped topple a closed and oppressive society. The exhibit contains the largest display of portions of the original wall outside of Germany. It features eight 12-foot-high concrete sections of wall, each weighing about three tons. A three-story East German guard tower that loomed near Checkpoint Charlie — Berlin's best-known East-West crossing — stands nearby.
